Hello everyone,

I´m a middle-aged woman and I live in a small countryside town in western Finland with my husband (who is as middle-aged as I am). We have two grown up children and nowadays also one grandson, who was born in June 2020. They all live nearby so we can meet often.

We love boating and fishing and hiking and going to theater and reading and shopping in second hand shops - peaceful things so to say. I collect dolls and have made a few dolls by myself, replicas of old Finnish dolls, art dolls, fantasy dolls and also mohair teddies. I knit, crochet and cross-stich a lot. I´m a fan of Eurovision Song Contest and MasterChef Australia - it´s just so super!

I have always been interested in foreign languages but I´m afraid my skills are a bit rusty nowadays. Maybe you could write me a couple of sentences in your own language whatever it is.

All kinds of cards are welcome but if you find a card of a doll or other toys, books or somehow literature related, it would be nice. Calvin and Hobbes is my favourite comic series. Is there Calvin and Hobbes cards? Peanuts are very wellcome too. I also like Christmas cards whether it is Christmas time or not. Cards that advertise some event are interesting - drama, movies, exhibition, festival, opening of a new shop, anything like that.

It´s so warming to think that someone somewhere has picked a card for me and used some time to write something - anything!

I´m looking forward to getting a card every now and then…

Happy postcrossing!

PS. I would like to own a sheep but it´s unlikely to come true - so how about a sheep card, if you have one, just a little hint too :)
